BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE Goods Issue 261 will not post

[Former Member]

Hi

I'm using the  BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE bapi to perform a Goods Issue 261. The material document gets created just fine but it does not Post. I have to go into MIGO, select the item OK check box and then Post the document. Is there a way the  BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE will create and post the doc for us? My sample code is below:

" Tables

   DATA: lt_header  TYPE TABLE OF bapi2017_gm_head_01.

   DATA: gm_code    TYPE bapi2017_gm_code.

   DATA: lt_headret TYPE TABLE OF bapi2017_gm_head_ret.

   DATA: lt_item    TYPE TABLE OF bapi2017_gm_item_create.

   DATA: gm_return  TYPE TABLE OF bapiret2.

   DATA: gm_retmtd  TYPE bapi2017_gm_head_ret-mat_doc.

   "Structures

   DATA: ls_item LIKE LINE OF lt_item.

   DATA: ls_headret LIKE LINE OF lt_headret.

   DATA: ls_header LIKE LINE OF lt_header.

   CLEAR: gm_return, gm_retmtd.

   REFRESH gm_return.

* Setup BAPI header data.

   ls_header-pstng_date = sy-datum.

   ls_header-doc_date   = sy-datum.

   gm_code-gm_code      = '03'. " MB1A Goods issue

   " Write 261 movement to table

   CLEAR ls_item.

   ls_item-move_type = '261'.

   ls_item-material = '000000000000100001'.

   ls_item-entry_qnt = '1'.

   ls_item-entry_uom = 'EA'.

   ls_item-plant = '1000'.

   ls_item-stge_loc = '1001'.

****  ls_item-costcenter = '42020'.

   ls_item-orderid = '000003309717'.

   APPEND ls_item TO lt_item.

* Call goods movement BAPI

   CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE'

     EXPORTING

       goodsmvt_header  = ls_header

       goodsmvt_code    = gm_code

     IMPORTING

       goodsmvt_headret = ls_headret

       materialdocument = gm_retmtd

     TABLES

       goodsmvt_item    = lt_item

       return           = gm_return.

   CALL FUNCTION 'BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT'

     EXPORTING

       wait = ''.

Hi Scott,

Please let us know what messages are returned in the return table after BAPI_GOODSMVT_CREATE call.

Also as a suggestion , try calling the BAPI_TRANSACTION_COMMIT without exporting the wait parameter as it is having a default value.

Looks like the wait parm might have been the issue. All is well now. Thanks Tanmay!
